RO water with clonex solution and very little lite amount of cal/mag ph'd to 6.5

yesterday I put 3 of the clones that just went 21 daZe with no rooting in my clone bucket into Dixie cups full of roots organic soil and there still all perked up so... we will see. they might turn out to be slow growing runts

Actually, if the room high is 74, in a misted, unheated environment, the temps will be lower due to evaporative cooling. How much cooler? Dunno. Just throwing that out there. Prolly shouldn't have chimed in on this as my method and aero-cloners are about as much alike as soil vs hydroponics. Hope ya figure it out.

If you're talking to me, I generally see nice healthy roots poking out of the peat pellet in around 4 or 5 days. Certainly no longer than 10.

What about the pump heating the water a little? I'd bet the op's water is over 70. I could be way off though. Just trying to help.

somethings not right then..becouse I do the same other than I use clonex gel..mind work fine like yours but for the last two batches. .ph'd the water too.. the plants look real healthy. .shame there not rooting..I will try..try again..AND I'll try a airstone
I use a small aquarium heater to keep the water at around 80 degrees in my EzClone, along with airstones. and I add the liquid Clonex clone solution and average roots in 10 days. Try the Clonex liquid, it speeds things up.

Gotta agree witdamick. Only thing I can think of aside from temps would be to get some IBA in there to help things along. Should be no reason whatsoever not tro get good cuttings to root.
